A VIEW ACROSS THE CAMPUS 



Home of the University 

Gainesville, the seat of the University, is one of the 
most healthful, attractive and progressive cities in Flor- 
ida. It is noted for its well-kept and beautifully shaded 
streets, its fine public buildings and its handsome 
and hospitable residences. It has long been the home of 
a higher institution of learning and has a social, religious and educational 
atmosphere necessary for the best interests of the students. It is in the 
center of a prosperous trucking section. The University lies in the extreme 
western part of the City, a mile from the Court House. The principal buildings 
are of the Tudor-Gothic type of architecture and are well adapted to the pur- 
poses for which they were designed. The campus is one of only two or three 
in the United States which, from the very beginning, have been laid out with a 
view to all possible future developments.

Forty per cent, of all positions of trust and distinction are held by college-trained men, although 
only a few more than one per cent, of our youth have enjoyed the advantages of college life. 

The chances for success of the high school graduate are two hundred times as great as those of 
the boy who ends his education with the common school; the chances of the college graduate are ten 
times as great as those of the youth who finishes with the high school.

The University is YOURS. It is 
owned and paid for by the people of 
the State. Florida has, with great 
liberality, placed the expenses so low 
that it is within the means of every- 
body. The equipment is here, the 
men are here; will you not take advan- 
tage of all this, for your own benefit?
